Helge,

Check your grounds....especially the main one from the battery to frame.

Subject: Ambo starter just goes "click"?


Greetings all

When I was about to ride home from work the other day, the starter was
just clicking when I pressed the starter button (Can't tell if the click
was from the relay or the solenoid). The starter motor wouldn't turn.
(The day before the battery was charged to full).
Scratching my beard for a minut and tried again - still just a click.
Went kinda mad and pressed the starter button several times - "click,
click, click, wrraaoooom" Hey! Let's ride home now!

What to look for here? Should I change the Marelli motor to a Valeo (I
already have it stocked)?
Or is it more likely the relay?

Yours sincerely
Helge H.
